Spirulina Powder

You’ve seen it at your local smoothie shop, health food store, and probably on your favorite health influencer’s social media….spirulina is everywhere! And it’s quickly becoming one of the most popular superfoods on the planet for a good reason.

Spirulina is an algae that is packed with nutrients! In fact, it is so nutrient-dense that some researchers and scientists believe it can end malnutrition and world hunger.

So what’s in it that makes it so nutritious? It is a high-quality source of protein–making up about 51% of its composition! It contains 18 amino acids, copper, iron, manganese, potassium, B vitamins, iodine, and Gamma-linolenic acid (an omega-6 fatty acid). It’s also one of the best plant-based iron sources and contains over 26 times more calcium than milk. Check out some of the health benefits of spirulina!

#1 – It May Improve Muscle Strength and Endurance

Spirulina is so nutrient-dense and high in antioxidants that Aztec messengers would use it as an energy source on their long runs. Some modern studies show that spirulina may improve muscle strength and endurance and decrease damage from exercise.

#2 – It Helps Your Body Detoxify

Spirulina can bind with toxins and help your body remove them! In addition to chlorophyll which helps remove toxins in your blood, one review shows that the high antioxidant content is another reason for spirulina’s detoxifying properties.

#3 – It’s Anti-Inflammatory

Spirulina is rich in antioxidants, in particular–phycocyanin! Phycocyanin is anti-inflammatory, and some studies have shown that it fights free radicals that cause oxidative stress. Add it to smoothies, beverages, or yogurt for an antioxidant boost!

#4 – It Can Improve Your Immune System

Mix things up if you’re tired of constantly taking vitamin C to stay healthy! Research shows that spirulina can increase “the production of infection-fighting cytokines.” One study, in particular, shows that spirulina can improve immune function in older adults.

Things You May Be Wondering

Where Does Spirulina Come From?

Spirulina gives the word “pond-scum” a whole new meaning. As unappealing as it may sound, spirulina is actually a type of algae that grows in bodies of water, similar to seaweed. However, don’t let its meager beginnings fool you. It’s incredible richness in protein, vitamins, and minerals makes it incredibly healthful to the body. It’s full of heroic secrets wrapped up in a humble package!

What’s the Difference in Green Spirulina vs. Blue Spirulina?

Both Blue Spirulina and Green Spirulina are extracts of the same plant – blue-green algae. Hinting at its two-part name, blue-green algae is made up of phycocyanin (the blue source) and chlorophyll (the green source).

And…you guessed it! Blue spirulina comes from phycocyanin and green spirulina comes from chlorophyll. Due to their differing compounds, each type offers unique benefits to the body

Is Nuvalsa’s Spirulina KETO friendly?
